Chapter 5 The Storm is Coming
In the early morning, a magnificent morning glow appeared in the east, wisps of cooking smoke floated in Beiliang City, and the air was filled with a light veil-like mist. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Azig looked at the tall and majestic and impassable city in front of him, and couldn't help but have a shadow in his heart.
The territory of the Han Empire is thousands of miles, and there are more than 100 cities like Beiliangcheng, among which the city walls are taller and stronger than it, and there are not a few, if every siege is so laborious, then when will the Han Empire be conquered, or that is just a fantasy.
No, it won't be like this!
The great Borjue Luo said that no matter how sharp the swords made by the Han people are, no matter how strong the cities are, they themselves are extremely cowardly, and in front of the Dajin warriors, the Han people are just a flock of sheep to be slaughtered, and they will eventually crawl under the swords and horsewhips of the Dajin warriors.
Isn't Xu Shijie a vivid example?
The generals of the Han Empire were so unbearable, not to mention those ordinary Han people.
As for the brave King of Beiliang, ....... A hint of jealousy flashed in Aqige's eyes, but his eyes quickly became bright, he stared at the Beiliang City in front of him, firmly believing that the Beiliang King was just a special case, and the setbacks in front of him were just accidental, and it would not be long before this city would definitely fall under his horse's hooves.
Thinking of this, Azig clenched his horsewhip proudly, he has always regarded Borjue Luo as a real hero on the grassland, and he himself yearns to be such a hero.
And right now, he's just one step away from becoming a hero.
Break through Beiliang City, I believe that the great Boljueluo will also call him a hero without hesitation!
At this time, a gallop came from a distance, and the galloping war horse was dark, tall and abnormally tall, and its size far exceeded that of ordinary grassland war horses, and the knight on the war horse was even more eye-catching.
The knight was about thirty years old, of medium height, with a bare upper body, well-developed muscles protruding from his shoulders and arms, and on his shoulders carried a stout mace, on which the cold spikes added a bit of bloodlust to his strong spirit.
Azig saw the knight who came over clearly, and his face was surprised: "Batu, why are you here?" Batu was the commander of Borjueluo's personal bodyguard, and when Aqige thought of this, he couldn't help but ask, "The lord of the country has arrived?"
Batu jumped off the war horse vigorously, his body was extremely light, and the thick mace was carried upside down in his right hand as if it had no weight, and he stepped forward in a few steps and grinned at Aqige: "The lord of the country is clearing several strongholds of the Han army, and I am afraid that he will not come over in a short time."
Azig frowned slightly, although Batu was laughing, but his smile was vaguely far-fetched, Azig pulled Batu into his tent, and shouted back the two female slaves in the tent, before asking: "Batu, is the lord of the country in trouble?"
Batu restrained his smile, pondered for a moment and replied: "The main force of the Han army has been defeated by the lord of the country, but there is a Han army in the stronghold of Beishan that resists stubbornly, and successfully collected several forces of the Han army, with a strength of more than 20,000 people, and stubbornly defended the main roads in Beishan, although the lord of the country personally led the main force of 80,000 to encircle and suppress, but the Beishan is steep, the road is narrow, and the troops cannot be used, so they can only besiege for the time being, and cannot quickly annihilate the 20,000 Han army."
Aqige sighed when he heard this, and said: "My attack on Beiliang City has not been smooth, I have lost more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in the past few days, but I can't even touch the head of the city, I really have the trust of the lord of the country."
As soon as the words fell, Aqige suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and staggered back a few steps, and when he stabilized his body and raised his head with a confused face, he saw Batu's gloomy face, and scolded him loudly: "Aqige, why do you sigh, could it be that a Beiliang City has extinguished your fighting spirit and become an incompetent coward?"
Akig was stunned when he heard this, his face quickly turned red, and he clenched his fists and said angrily: "Batu, are you insulting me?" I am a warrior, not a coward! With that, he slammed into Batu like a wounded wolf.
As the commander of Borjueluo's personal guard, Batu is very skilled in martial arts, and he is also born with divine power, and it is almost difficult to meet opponents on the grassland, while Azige's force is not bad, but it is still far from Batu.
In the face of Azige's brutal impact, Batu smiled faintly, and at the moment when the other party was about to hit him, one hand grabbed Azige's right shoulder like lightning, and the latter suddenly let out a muffled snort in his mouth, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
Azig calmed down, and he had to calm down, because he knew very well that the hand on his right shoulder just now would probably have shattered his shoulder blade if he had just exerted a little force.
On the grassland, the strong are respected!
Aqige's skills are not as good as others, not only did he not have a grudge against Batu, but he had a little more respect, took half a step back, bowed down with a sincere face, and said: "Batu, you deserve to be the first warrior of the grassland, and I, Aqige, are not as good as you."
Batu laughed, then laughed, and said in an extremely solemn tone: "Azige, you know that it is better for me to dare to make a move, it seems that you have not lost your courage, remember, the warriors of the grassland can lose their lives, but they must not lose their courage!"
Hearing this, Aqige's face was solemn, and his eyes were full of determination.
Batu nodded with satisfaction, his agitation technique was very clumsy, but it was often very effective for a bloody man like Aqige, he patted Aqige on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Aqige, the lord of the country is bound to win Beiliang City, there are 20,000 horses with me this time, of which 3,000 are the elite of the lord's headquarters, as well as a large number of siege equipment."
Azig has been distressed by the lack of strength in the siege, and at this time he learned that there were elite soldiers rushing to help, and there were siege equipment, and his heart swept away the depression of the previous few days, and he was greatly excited: "With such help, why worry about the Beiliang City not breaking!"
Batu asked, "Azige, how many days will it take you to break through Beiliang City?"
Azig was full of ambition, and just as he was about to answer, he trembled violently, and a figure appeared in his mind, his eyes showed a little horror, and he paused for a moment and said: "In half a month, it should be possible to break the city." ”
Batu frowned and said, "Half a month...... Aqige, isn't it a little longer, Beiliang City is our foothold in the Central Plains, and it is very important to the great cause of the lord of the country. ”
Facing Batu's somewhat stern tone, Azig didn't seem to care, his gaze was a little sloppy, and after taking a deep breath, he said slowly: "Batu, do you know that Zhuo Erhan died in battle, at the hands of a man named Xuanyuan Chen."
Batu's heart tightened, he knew that Zhuo Erhan was a well-known warrior on the grassland, and his brute strength was almost unmatched, and his death would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the morale of the Dajin army under Beiliang City.
Zhuo Erhan was killed, and the morale of the army was low, could it be all Xuanyuan Chen...... That stupid prince caused it?
With some doubts in his heart, Batu and Azig came to a tent.
The tent was filled with a strong rancid smell, a corpse was lying flat in the middle, Batu squatted in front of the corpse, his expression gradually became solemn, and he looked at the corpse for a long time before he said in an extremely exclaimed tone: "What a fast knife, such a heavy knife, such a ruthless knife!"
Azige's face turned a little pale, remembering that he had almost died under the knife, and couldn't help but take a half step back.
Batu said in a deep voice: "The wound is very long, very deep, but the incision is very small, in order to cause such a knife wound, the knife must be as fast as lightning, and the wrist strength of the knife bearer must be strong, and in one go, he will not ignore the resistance of the knife when it cuts into the flesh." ”
Facing such a sharp wound, Aqige couldn't hide the horror on his face, and said with palpitations: "Zhuo Erhan just made a move with the other party, and he was cut off the horse."
Batu didn't respond, staring at the wound on Zhuo Erhan's neck as if nothing was there, while reaching out and constantly gesturing, his eyes showing approval: "This knife is too accurate, and the trajectory of the cut is simply perfect." ”
Azig knew that although Batu's weapon was a mace, he would only use it on the battlefield, and as the personal guard of the lord of the country, Borjueluo, he usually wore a sword, and he was also the best at knives.
However, at this moment, Batu's gaze suddenly became a little strange, and he muttered, "Azige, you don't know how to use swords, so you don't understand what this wound really means. He stood up, his movements sluggish and seemingly weak.
Seeing this, Azig hurriedly asked, "What did you find?"
Batu hesitated: "There are many people with powerful sword skills, but there are not many people who can use wonderful sword skills when killing people, after all, ordinary people don't have much actual combat experience in fighting with their lives, but the person who slashed Zhuo Erhan's knife must have encountered countless tests of life and death, that is to say, if it is not for excellent luck, that Xuanyuan Chen must have killed many people." ”
Aqige's expression changed slightly, and his eyes showed surprise: "That Xuanyuan Chen has always lived in seclusion, I have never heard of him killing people, he was still a fool when he was young!"
Batu nodded, and before the Dajin army headed south, Borjueluo investigated and analyzed the main generals of the northern border of the Dahan Empire, as well as the figures who might pose a threat to the Dajin army.
As the king of Beiliang, Xuanyuan Chen is naturally one of the people who have been concerned.
But the Dajin monarchs, including Borjueluo, didn't take Xuanyuan Chen to heart, a puppet prince who was young and stupid and didn't do anything when he grew up really had nothing to worry about.
Xuanyuan Chen, what kind of person are you?
Batu's eyebrows were tightly locked, he was very interested in Xuanyuan Chen, but he was more concerned about whether Beiliang City could be broken as soon as possible, otherwise the overall plan of the Dajin Kingdom Lord Borjueluo might be disrupted.
And if you want to break through Beiliang City, you must first solve Xuanyuan Chen.
Thinking of this, Batu's eyes suddenly shrank, and an awe-inspiring aura burst out of his eyes, and he said coldly: "Aqige, send someone to Beiliang City to call for battle, I want to fight with Xuanyuan Chen, the king of Beiliang!"
Akig's heart jumped when he heard this, and he wanted to speak out to stop Batu from taking danger, but when he met Batu's decisive eyes, he knew that there was no possibility of persuasion, and after solemnly stroking Batu's chest with one fist, he turned around and walked out of the tent.
Yesterday, Xuanyuan Chen was about to fight Borjueluo, and as a result, he killed Zhuo Erhan, which hit the morale of the Dajin army.
Today, Batu, the first warrior of Daikin, wants to return the favor to the other side!
This will be a battle that will decide the life and death of the two, and it will also be a battle that will decide the fate of Beiliang City!
Batu slowly walked out of the tent and looked up into the distance, the battle intent in his eyes seemed to be more dazzling than the rising sunset, for many years, he finally met an opponent worthy of his sword.
